ФРАНЦИЯ-ПРЕЗИДЕНТ-КАРАБАХ-КОММЕНТАРИЙ

Президент Франции Николя Саркози выразил надежду на достижение мира между Арменией и Азербайджаном.
Выступая сегодня на совместной с президентом Армении Сержем Саргсяном пресс-конференции, глава французского государства, заявил, единственным решением является возобновление переговоров между армянской и азербайджанской сторонами в рамках Минской группы ОБСЕ.


"Мы видим, что можно достичь точки соприкосновения для установления мира в связи с этой проблемой", - заявил Саркози.


Он отметил, что регион Южного Кавказа достаточно нестабильный, и достижение мира важно с точки зрения развития двух стран.


Напомним, что Франция вместе с США и Россией является сопредседателем Минской группы ОБСЕ по урегулированию нагорно-карабахского конфликта.


Началоконфликту было положено в 1988 году, после решения властей населенного армянами Нагорного Карабаха о выходе из состава Азербайджана. 10 декабря 1991 года в Нагорном Карабахе состоялся референдум, где 99,89% высказались за полную независимость от Азербайджана. В ответ Азербайджан начал широкомасштабные боевые действия, которые привели к потере контроля не только над Нагорным Карабахом, но и прилегающими к нему семью районами. С 12 мая 1994 года после вступления в силу трехстороннего соглашения о перемирии в зоне конфликта прекращены военные действия, в результате которых с обеих сторон погибло примерно 25-30 тысяч человек и около 1 миллиона были вынуждены покинуть свои дома. Соглашение об установлении режима прекращения огня соблюдается до сих пор. С 1992 года по сей день ведутся переговоры по мирному урегулированию конфликта в рамках Минской группы ОБСЕ.

Aden under curfew, as problem in Yemen's south deepens

Aden under curfew, as problem in Yemen's south deepens

The port city of Aden, in Yemen's south, has been put under curfew, as the rift in the country between  the Saudi led coalition which  backs Yemen's presidential governing council, and the southern forces led by the Southern Transitional Council (STC), deepens. Abdul Rahman al-Mahrami, a member of the Yemeni Presidential Governing Council and commander of the al-Amalik brigades, has ordered a curfew in the temporary capital, Aden, "to maintain security". "A curfew has been imposed throughout Aden Governorate from 9:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m., in accordance with the instructions of Commander Abdul Rahman al-Mahrami, a member of the Presidential Management Council," the statement said. It states that only security and military personnel, as well as medical and technical teams with approved permits, will be allowed to move in the area during these hours. Yemen's presidential council, which is backed by Saudi Arabia and which already is in a struggle with the Houthi Movement in the north of the country who also occupy the capital Sanaa, two days ago issued an order for the arrest of the head of the Southern Transitional Council (STC),, Aidarous al Zubaidi. The STC have wide support among people in the South, and advocate that South Yemen restores its independence. The coalition warned of further escalation in Aden, long regarded as an STC stronghold, as the Presidential Leadership Council (PLC) chief accused STC leader Aidarous Al Zubaidi of “high treason” and announced the revocation of his membership in the governing body. The moves mark a sharp escalation in tensions within the anti-Houthi camp, despite National Shield Forces, rivals of the STC and former allies, having recently retaken control of Hadhramaut and Mahra from southern fighters. The STC’s takeover of the two regions last month angered Saudi Arabia and contributed to igniting the current internal conflict. (click the picture to read more)
